Fedora 41 KDE optimus laptop screen not run on Nvidia card

Hi all,

The output of “inxi -G” is :
$ inxi -G

Device-1: Intel CoffeeLake-H GT2 [UHD Graphics 630] driver: i915 v: kernel

Laptop is Dell XPS 15 9570. Problem is that console Wayland driver is still i915 and I can’t configure resolution beyond 1920x1080. In the past, I used to work with Ubuntu with Nvidia card is the prime and resolution is far beyond 1920x1080. My case is very similar to [SOLVED] F40 + KDE6 + Wayland = I want my NVIDIA GPU back! (Dell XPS 15 9500 + GeForce GTX) and I set all the environment variables in the link, but no luck.

I’ve read almost all the documents regarding the problem and tried various workarounds; nothing helped. Any ideas?

Thank you…

Please show inxi -Gxx so we can see the additional information.
